Windows will not let me remove a bad version of the Firefox program so I can install a good one. I have an infected/malfunctioning Firefox. I have scanned with both Malbytes and SAS. I cannot remove the program so I can add a good version.

I received a trojan malware. I first scanned with Malwarebytes. Then downloaded the Super Antispyware Portable Scanner and scanned with it. I want to remove the once infected Firefox and install a new one, but when I click "Remove" in the Add/Remove program, it will not proceed. How do I remove the once infected Firefox so I can install a new one?

Take a look at:
